Speakers' corner

To demonstrate my commitment to freedom of speech I took to my soapbox today (well, my upturned recycling bin actually) to address the assembled masses (Katie). It was quite a civilised affair really ... a speaker who didn't know how to say very much and an audience that couldn't heckle!


"There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,
"I feel this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong."
No teacher, preacher, parent, friend
Or wise man can decide
What's right for you--just listen to
The voice that speaks inside."

(Shel Silverstein - The Voice)
